Feeding the Family

What’s your go-to, quick, easy and yummy dinner?

Does anyone have a favorite company or have tried Factor or Cook Unity? Husband travels for work so looking for a healthy & convenient option when it’s just me.

I have found myself working through lunch and then realizing at 2:30pm that I'm starving and then I'm not hungry at 6pm with the fam for dinner. What are y'all eating for lunch during the week that you can easily prepare ahead of time or quickly throw together?

In need of an easy breakfast option for my kids for school mornings. We are in a major rut and I need to change it up!

My kids love milkshakes but i'm looking to swap this Summer habit with a delicious protein shake. What are your favorites? My kid's fav flavor is cookies and cream. Thank you!!

My preschoolers need to take a lunch to school each day and they don’t have a way to heat them up. The other day, my 4 year old looked me in the eye, and said deadly seriously, “Don’t EVER send me cold chicken again. EVER.” So I’m looking for inspiration for things to pack in preschool lunches that are kept cold! He doesn’t typically like to eat things cold that are supposed to be served hot (with pasta being an exception weirdly). We’ve done sun butter sandwiches, mix charcuterie (aka pepperoni, cheese, crackers, fruit) and deli meat roll up’s, each with mixed success depending on the kid and the day 🙃 What are some things I’m not thinking of??

Feeding the family on a budget while keeping meals tasty and nutritious can be a challenge. Whether you're looking for quick meal ideas, affordable dining options, or healthy choices, planning ahead can make a big difference.

For those busy days when cooking isn’t an option, checking out affordable menu choices can help. For example, you can explore the latest deals and prices at this. to find family-friendly meal options without breaking the bank.

Tips for Budget-Friendly Family Meals:
Plan weekly meals to minimize waste and maximize savings.
Look for combo deals and value meals when dining out.
Incorporate more homemade meals with simple, nutritious ingredients.

What is your favorite BPA free, non toxic cookware brand for pots and pans? Caraway is great in theory but the non stick doesn't last long and I've found the grease stains are hard to clean.

Making my registry. Curious what your top used items have been?? Thanks!!

I’ve tried everything - sneaking them in, making them different ways, covering them in cheese, etc. I feel so guilty but is this normal and should I actually be worried? We did start a daily vitamin gummy which makes me feel slightly better.

Can anyone recommend a good pediatrician in Austin who allows you to delay vaccines?

What are some strategies to improve my toddler’s eating habits? Will eat all fruits and always wants snacks, not substantial food! We put out a meal and its barely touched. Frustrating! Lots of wasted food.

I find that frequently switching things up can help improve the odds that my kids will actually eat the food and snacks provided. Please send recommendations, with an emphasis on high fiber!

My 4 year old is SUCH a picky eater!! I swear her behavior is linked to meals and being hungry. She seems to have such a small stomach and doesn’t even come close to finishing a meal. What can I do?!
